Prior to the Cork concert, Springsteen posted another humorous video message on his social media sites. In the latest clip, Bruce appears in a pub wearing an Irish-style flat cap and a heavy flannel plaid shirt.
Hey, everybody,” Springsteen says as he takes the cap off his head. “We’re in Dublin, but Cork, we’re coming your way. And we plan to rock you … into the ground!” The Boss then chuckles and places the cap back on his head.
As with the other recent video messages from Springsteen, the newest one was shot by his sister, veteran rock photographer Pamela Springsteen.

“Who ever told Bruce to do this, we thank you,” one fan wrote.
Another shared, “County Cork! My [mom’s] roots! Happy rockin Bruce and co…and we’ll be here in Jersey keeping the boardwalk warm for ya!”
A third fan commented, “Love this hat that seems to come out every Irish leg of his tours.”
